Red Sox designated hitter David Ortiz exploded after striking out in the ninth inning against the Blue Jays on Wednesday.

He came to the plate with J.D. Drew on base and one out as Boston trailed 3-1. Ortiz struck out on a called third strike.

"I'm too mad right now," Ortiz said after the game. "I'm too [expletive] pissed off right now. Just write down whatever you guys want. Just leave it like that. You all know what's up."

Asked if he saw a replay of the called third strike, Ortiz said he didn't have to.

"Thank God I wasn't hitting right-handed because that would have hit me in the ribs," he said.
